15 MONTHS

I can't believe my girl will be 15 months old tomorrow! Her doctor's appointment was today, and most of it went well. She took her (one) shot like a champ and enjoyed wandering around the room playing with anything she could get her hands on. She's hitting all of the proper milestones for her age as well as many of the 18 month markers.

Unfortunately she's only gained half a pound and grown an inch in the last three months. She's dropped slightly in her percentile curves. The doctor isn't too worried, since a) She's hitting her milestones, b) She's so active, and c) She's been sick for two weeks straight. Regardless, we're hoping for a growth spurt between now and her next appointment at 18 months. At that point we'll decide whether or not to run some tests and see if she's just a tiny girl, or if there is something wrong.

Weight: 19 lbs 1 oz
Length: 29 inches
Recent milestones/new things: Stalking Mega Blocks into towers and knocking them over, bringing something to the garbage, walking to the door when we tell her we're going for a walk/drive, starting to get up on one of the couches in the Living Room, points to mouth and ears when asked, shakes her butt and moves her shoulders to "dance" to music, peaks around corners like in hide-and-seek, pretends to mix with a bowl and spoon, points to cat and says "mow" as well as dog, and says "wuff wuff"
Words: Mama, Dada, Nana, uh-oh, oh ya, wasat (What's that), dis (this), hey, up, hi
Signs: All done, more
Favourite toy: My Pal Violet, Mega Blocks, IKEA shape sorter, Little People Animal Sounds Zoo
Sleep: 7:30 or 8 pm - 8 or 9 am
Diapers: Love Pampers Baby Dry (4)
Food: We haven't come across too many foods that she dislikes, but she eats in small portions. Some of her favourites include chicken, garlic, all fruits and veggies, and potatoes.

I think she likes her new toy

We bought her this play table for her birthday. She loves it! This was her first time playing with it.

You're almost one!

And the brainstorming has begun for her fall-themed party. Here are some ideas:
  • Make/mail cards (layout idea) by September 26
  • BBQ dinner: Pulled pork, chicken, salads, cookies, cupcakes and ice cream for guests, smash cake for Addison
  • Make pendant for high chair, flowers or pendant for back wall behind gift/treat table, make wreath with burgundy/brown/yellow flowers for front door (and leave up for Fall)
  • Buy Addison a burgundy/brown/yellow outfit, birthday bib
  • Gifts: Finish baby scraps quilt, books, Leapfrog Potsy? Picnic? Violet?
  • Birthday photos (Meg?)/scrapbook pages

Baby shopping is overwhelming

With Morgan's first birthday and the birth of her sister quickly approaching, I've been scouring baby stores like it's going out of style. I've decided to get Morgan Leapfrog's My Pal Violet,
and will probably do the same for Addison's first birthday as well. Ryan finally decided what he wants for the new baby, so Isaac and I will be buying them the Fisher Price My Little Lamb Swing.
